حَدِیث معَاوِیَةَ بنِ اَبِی سفیَانَHadith of Mu'awiyah ibn Abi Sufyan
Hadith 16911
اُردوEn
وَسَمِعْتُهُ ، يَقُولُ : " إِنَّمَا أَنَا خَازِنٌ ، وَإِنَّمَا يُعْطِي اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، فَمَنْ أَعْطَيْتُهُ عَطَاءً عَنْ طِيبِ نَفْسٍ ، فَهُوَ أَنْ يُبَارَكَ لِأَحَدِكُمْ ، وَمَنْ أَعْطَيْتُهُ عَطَاءً عَنْ شَرَهٍ ، وَشَرَهِ مَسْأَلَةٍ ، فَهُوَ كَالْآكِلِ وَلَا يَشْبَعُ "
And I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: I am only a treasurer, the real giver is Allah. Therefore, if I give something to a person with a happy heart, then it will be made blessed for him. And if I give something to someone to protect myself from his evil or because of his insistence in asking, then he is like the one who keeps eating but is never satisfied.
